Abstract

Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) has emerged as a critical global health threat driven by chronic insulin resistance and pancreatic beta-cell dysfunction. Conventional therapies often fail to address the underlying molecular pathogenesis, focusing merely on glycemic control. This study aims to explore the potential of Metabolik-CRISPR, an innovative targeted genetic engineering approach, in breaking the chain of chronic insulin resistance. The method used is a comprehensive literature review analyzing recent advancements in CRISPR-Cas9 applications, ceRNA network regulations, and nanoparticle delivery systems. The results indicate that Metabolik-CRISPR effectively intervenes in critical signaling pathways (INSR, IRS1, AKT2) and corrects ceRNA network imbalances. Furthermore, the integration of Magnetic Peptide-Imprinted Nanoparticles (MPIPs) significantly enhances the targeted delivery and activation of endogenous insulin genes safely. In conclusion, Metabolik-CRISPR offers a fundamental, permanent, and comprehensive cellular rehabilitation strategy, shifting the paradigm of T2DM management from symptom amelioration to targeted genetic restoration.
